Red Lanterns (2011-2015) Vol. 6: Forged in Blood by Landry Q. Walker, Charles Soule
2.0

This was a major let down.

The first half is about Guy hating himself for what happened to all the Red Lanterns. When the new gods show up he decides to go after them and Simon joins him. The second half is after the event and it has Guy walking around being lonely and emo while meeting a baby...yes...does it make much sense? Fuck no.

Overall, the first half is decent. It has the signature humor moments, badass fights, and cool moments. It's not amazing but it works. The 2nd half? Garbo. Bad dialogue, bad pacing, and a story no one cares about. A 2 out of 5.
